Abstract A growing number of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) has been advocated for urban flood risk management (FRM). However, whether NbS FRM (NbS-FRM) achieves both social and ecological co-benefits remains largely unknown. We here propose use a conceptual framework with coupled social-ecological perspective to explore identify such “win-win” potential in NbS-FRM. Through scoping-review we find that measures are unevenly distributed around the world, those solely targeting mitigation may have unintended negative consequences society ecosystems. In elaborating this evidence from reviewed studies, NbS-FRM provide co-benefits, remaining gaps including lack resilience thinking, inadequate consideration environmental changes, limited collaborative efforts manage trade-offs. The proposed shows how move forward leverage equitable sustainable improved human well-being ecosystem health.

Rapid urbanization in China has exacerbated the urban heat island (UHI) effect, posing considerable challenges to sustainability and public health. Most UHI studies have focused on impacts of two-dimensional (2D) urbanization, which involves outward city expansion increased built-up area. However, as cities mature, they typically transition from horizontal vertical densification (3D urbanization), leading material stock density. The implications this shift for effect remain underexplored. This study compared 2D 3D urbanization-induced across 384 Chinese 2000 2020, using impervious surface gridded stocks. Our results surprisingly indicated that lost explanatory power intensity when area percentage exceeded 87%. Relative importance analysis utilizing a random forest algorithm revealed population, vegetation abundance, precipitation significantly moderated effects emphasizing crucial role green spaces mitigating thermal stress. examined spatiotemporal dynamics China, key urbanization. findings highlight urgent need incorporate characteristics devising mitigation strategies.
